Patrick Mahomes is bringing up retirement, and that noise you hear is of thousands of Kansas City Chiefs fans falling to their knees.

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes, fresh off his third Super Bowl title and named one of the 2024 TIME 100 Most Influential People, recently spoke out about when he will know his time is up in the league and he will walk off into the sunset.

During a recent interview with Time, the Kansas City Chiefs quarterback said that being a dad will play a role in how quickly that day will come. The 27-year-old added that his daughter, Sterling Skye, plays a central role in his future decisions regarding football.

Patrick Mahomes brought up Tom Brady when discussing his future plans:

“I’ve looked, if I played until Tom (Brady) ‘s age, my daughter would be 19, 20 years old,” he pointed out.

“I would love to play that long,” he continued. “At the same time, I want to be there for my daughter. If I can do that, I’ll continue to play. But if I feel like it’s taking away from my family time, that’s when I’ll know it’s time to go.”

Patrick, alongside his wife Brittany, welcomed their son, Patrick “Bronze” Lavon Mahomes III, in November 2022.

Mahomes, a three-time Super Bowl winner, recently led the Kansas City Chiefs to their second consecutive championship, defeating the San Francisco 49ers in Las Vegas in February. Brady played in the NFL for 23 seasons and won seven Super Bowls before retiring last year. His marriage also famously fell apart during his final year in the league.

“Tom’s skewed people’s brains on how hard that is to do because of how well he took care of his body,” Patrick added. “So I’m about to make sure that I get rid of this dad bod if I want to play to 45.”

This past March, Patrick and Brittany celebrated Easter by posing in front of a pool, wearing blue outfits, and holding their kids. Brittany also gave a glimpse of the little ones in blue checkered attire.

Patrick Mahomes Has a Chance to Make NFL History Next Season

The Chiefs became just the fourth team in NFL history to win three Super Bowls in a five-year stretch and became the seventh franchise to hoist four or more Lombardi Trophies. Mahomes became the third QB in NFL history to notch 15-plus playoff wins and just the fifth signal-caller ever to win three Super Bowls.

Fresh off winning back-to-back Super Bowls, Mahomes could make history by having the Chiefs become the first team in NFL history to win three consecutive Super Bowls.
